- Sony’s PlayStation 5 still lacks a full specs sheet, as the company is yet to announce specific details about the console’s hardware.

- A rumor circulating online may have leaked Sony’s PS5 specs, teasing the formidable performance of the console.

It’s the second week of March and Sony still hasn’t announced anything about the new PlayStation 5, aside from all the vague announcements the company made last year. Yes, we know what kind of CPU and GPU to expect from the PS5, we know it’ll have a super-fast SSD, and that the new DualShock 5 controller is getting much better feedback than before. But the console’s most important features are still secret, as Sony said after CES a couple of months ago. The design is also missing-in-action, even though Microsoft revealed its Xbox Series X design some three months ago.
If it weren’t for the coronavirus, we’d have no reason to grow anxious about this particular Sony announcement. But the coronavirus spread is the most important thing happening in the world right now, and it could have a huge impact on the PS5 launch as well. Sony canceled three gaming events so far, two because of the outbreak (PAX East and GDC) and one well before the world started worrying about the virus’s spread (E3). It’s currently unclear when or where Sony will be able to hold a proper PS5 launch event. Meanwhile, Microsoft a few weeks ago released almost a full spec sheet for the new Xbox, keeping just one key detail secret. That hasn’t stopped the PS5 leaks from popping up online, and the latest one teases insane specs for the PS5.
